Offense first 2 picks

[starfan1]

To me, Pitts and Sewell are the only two players elite enough to take over our current need for Surtain.

While I agree cb is a need I don’t think Surtain is so much better than the rest that necessitates him being taken at 10 in fact I’d rather have Parsons : I’d rather trade down but if Parsons and Surtain were both there I gonparsons or even LB our of Tulsa he’s gaining steam

 

[Carson]

Why does everyone insist we will take an OT in the 1st round. You take an OT that high, he needs to be a day 1 starter. We do not need a day 1 starter for the OL.
They been saying Collins and Smith are coming along fine in rehab. By the time the draft comes along, they will still believe they are still the starters.

I have no issues with Pitts, if for some reason he falls, as Lamb fell to us last year.

I believe most want Sewell/Slater to start at LG and slowly transition to LT when Smith retires / gets hurt.

 

[DuncanIso]

I believe Pitts will be taken by ATL, & Sewell will drop!

we should trade up for Sewell.

it’s a solid decision.

he’s elite.

 

[Typhus]

We don’t.

I think he meant who doesn't need a WR running sub 4.4

Both those OT’s could start at LG as Collins did before moving to tackle.

I think Dallas is going with Brown, Lewis, and Diggs in 2021.

Collins has a bad hip.

and they can cut him after 2021 and save mega $$$.

So before everyone goes nuts, I know we need defense and I do not see this happening. BUT I THINK regardless if Pitts some how happens to fall to us at 10 we just have to take him, with his upside and talent and what he would do for our offense as a whole plus the possibility of losing Gallup. I think its a no brainer pick.
Now at pick 44 if one of the top rated OT falls to us such as a Cosmi or Leatherwood and they are rated higher than a Def player, do we make that pick?
Do we go back to a team like in Daks first year where we maul teams keep the ball longer and our Def becomes better for it. Just a thought and wanted to hear what you all think if we went that way?
I know I cant wait for the draft either so killing time LOL.
Happy Easter or Holidays to all.

Fans like to go for the flash. Fans are almost always wrong.

While I agree taking a offensive lineman at 10 may be a waste of a pick in 2021, I do not agree we don't need an upgrade on the OL. If they take Slater, for example, he can move inside and take over for Connor Williams immediately and upgrade the OL. I am not convinced Biadasz is going to be as great as some are anointing him to be either, although I have high hopes.

I think what most people are worried about is Tyron Smith getting hurt again and the Cowboys not having an adequate replacement at LT. Sewell or Slater can start at LG and move outside if need be. I am not a proponent of this, but I see their logic. Plus, if Tyron gets hurt again and has to sit out a number of games, can we count on him in 2022 or will it be time to move on? Having a guy like Sewell on the roster makes that decision really easy.

However, Sewell is not going to fall to 10. It is just not happening. The Cowboys will have to move up to get him and I don't see that happening either.

You may be right and I think Robinson as well but it’s hard to read what Dallas does. It usually goes against conventional wisdom.

cb and safety will be taken in draft just not sure where

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Cowboys would NEVER. They'd reach on that 2nd round pick for defense before they did something like this.

Same to you. Happy Easter. You have to rake BPA at 10. You can not worry about position if it's a need. So yes..two offensive picks are not going to kill us. Having Quinn at DC is the whitewash needed to rediscover our defense. So while nice to have top players but good coaching trumps that.

I can certainly understand this, however they need to state that for their reasoning.
I have not yet seen that posted. All I see is they need to replace Smith and / or Collins.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

To have the ability to have Diggs and Sustain on rookie deals for the next 4 years together.....is something that needs to be discussed.

Agreed.

Im ok with if he is drafted to replace Williams and an eventual LT.

I believe Smith and Collins will be healthy and ready to go

Happy Easter to you as well. I say BPA every round. No trading up or down.

In the top 5, as it stands now, the only 2 I am sure of are JAX and SF, they're going QB.

The Jets have a new HC and it's not known how he feels about his QB but if he likes him, he gets him some help with OL, WR or TE.

The Falcons still have Ryan and I doubt they pull a Packers and take a QB so they'll go OL, WR or TE. With Julio and Ridley, I think it's most likely TE.

The Bengals are a real wild card because a QB is not in the mix and they'll definitely go WR, OL or TE.

Are the Dolphins happy with Tua? If so, they go OL, TE or WR.

DET said they're happy with Goff. If that's a fact, they will go OL, TE or WR.

CAR is going QB and might even trade up.

DEN is the first challenger for a D player in the top 10.

In the top 10, there are 4 graded QB's, 2 OL, maybe 2 WR's if Waddle is one of them and 1 TE. If you are holding hope out for Pitts, he's got to get passed up by
5 teams ahead of the Cowboys and that doesn't count the one team with a former TE the most like Pitts, DEN.

I do not see any way Pitts makes it to 10. The draft is less than 4 weeks away and he's already the most talked about player in this draft, more than Lawrence, Sewell or Chase, legit top 5 picks. By the time the 29th gets here, Pitts will be legend unlike any player we've seen come in since Manning. Part of that is it is a forgone conclusion Lawrence will be a Jaguar so there isn't a debate.

I think it is more likely that a QB or OL falls to 10 than the TE.

 

[Cwby41]

as much as that makes sense, im still going to resist and say trade down , fix the defense and lets move forward.

we have far far too much invested in Receivers and OL and on the O side of the ball, its so slanted the boat listed to one side and sank last year...

im not on board with BPA on offense, im more for trading down to make the defensive picks not reaching, gaining picks and packaging SOME LOWER PICKS FOR LATER TO MOVE UP AND GRAB OUR ACUTAL DEFNSEIVE TARGETS,,

so at first you move down , then later use the extra picks to move back up when target is close..

we need a strategic draft for defense our offense is beyond loaded with talent and cap hits

seriously the OL bs is old,

all the doctors here that say LC is done is stupid, sorry it is he had his best year in 2019 and not one word his injurys is career threatening, we have taken McGovern, Biadasz, and added OL depth both through the draft and undrafted guys and FA , we have starters plus depth , you cant keep asking for PB at every POL postion..

let dak and that skilled offense who are overpaid learn to adapt to normal OL, i mean some on here wanted to call out Dalton yet he played with patchwork 3rd string OL and made plays..umm hey 40mil boy wonder, figure it out like Watson and Wilson have had to do, adapt, scheme etc If you cant find a solid starting group out of TS, Cwill, Mcgovern, Biadsz, martin, LC , Knight, steele, Ty N., and adding late OL inthe draft or another FA like Looney or Senat still around..if the OL coach which did great job all season IMO cant work with that and our overpaid skill positional players cant adapt and succeed, 2022 needs them all cut or traded etc..move on time because having a need all 5 OL positions PBs is ridiculous and unnecessary.

no wrs no OL No early RBs we have those on big deals and sick of hearing we need more weapons', seriously?

No there are very good defenders in this draft they just happen to not be high up in the first but mid first and lower its not a reach..

you say no generational defenders, seriously how do you know? you are guessing its why payers lie TJ watt fall late in the first, Brady a 6th rounder, seriously,..

hey evaluators you overthink, over evaluate, and get stuck on the ridiculously long process for the pre draft mocks that have people going back and forth..

there will be great defenders that turn in PB years all over this draft..find them!

Great take thanks

 

[Hardline]

Still need a speedy WR that runs sub 4.4

Take Waddle then.

 

[morasp]

I think Dallas is going with Brown, Lewis, and Diggs in 2021.

It would be better than some of our lineups last year.
